Destin, Florida · Six-pack charter · Est. 2011

Past the hundred-fathom curve by seven a.m.

Destin sits closer to deep water than any port on the Gulf. We use that. Trips leave the harbor before the tourists wake up, and we're on the fish while other boats are still idling out of the pass.

The captain

“Anybody can find fish in June. I find them in February.”

Dale Whitlock has run charters out of Destin since 2011 and fished the Gulf since he could hold a rod. He reads the water, the weather and the mood of a group of first-timers the same way: fast. USCG licensed, first-aid certified, and known on the docks for bringing boats back full.

USCG 50-ton Master license
Kids 6+ welcome; life jackets in every size aboard
Fish cleaned and bagged at the dock, no charge
